FAILURE ISN'T ABOUT FALLING DOWN, FAILURE IS STAYING DOWN..........

Blackpool, it's been a while since...... : Thu Feb 05, 2009 9:50 am  
It seems quite a long time since we played fixtures against Blackpool doesn't it ?
I think this fixture will probably be their first to the Shay, anyone ?

We played Oldham Roughyeds at Chorley, Not Chorley Lynx.

Twice we played Chorley Borough at Victory Park (but not Blackpool, who we haven't met to the best of my knowledge since I resumed watching rugby league in 1988) - first on 4 March 1990 and then the following season 1990/91 (though I don't recall the exact date). The most recent game in which Halifax played at Chorley was, as Brew has said, a 'home' match for Oldham (banished from Boundary Park due to pitch work).

Strictly speaking Chorley were a new club anyway.

When Blackpool closed in 1987 the remnants of the club turned up in Wigan as Springfield Borough and then mutated into Trafford Borough.

So the last time we played them would have been April 1990 when we murdered Trafford 66-somthing at Thrum Hall in the game that clinched promotion.

Chorley was a club set up the old Blackpool directors who didn't agree with going to Wigan.

I suspect that the last time that Halifax played Blackpool was in the 1983/84 promotion season but I've asked Andrew Hardcastle for advice on this.
